Bug Fixing
After a big release there are always a few sneaky bugs that need fixing. The Blocks 3.1 release was no different. A few of the new refinements that were made for Blocks 3.1 caused some unexpected problems and a couple things were just overlooked. Blocks 3.1.1 fixes all the known bugs. Don't expect this to be final though. There are bound to be a few more that are even sneakier.

What's Fixed
There are no new features in this version of Blocks. It's just the bug fixes:
  • The Library no longer hangs when it encounters non library blocks in the Blocks Library folder.
  • Using undo on a slave page no longer causes duplication of master content.
  • Slave pages no longer export master content in certain situations.

For Developers
Well... OK, I lied. There is one new features. But it's just for developers of other RapidWeaver plugins. There's a simple way for developers to let Blocks know at runtime if their plugin is well-tested and working as a Page Block -- so other developers don't have to wait for a new Blocks release in order to get working in Blocks. If you're developing a plugin (and I haven't already contacted you) then drop me a line and I'll give you all the juicy technical details.

How much?
Like most updates from YourHead Software this update is free.

How do I install it?
The easiest way to install it is to:
  1. Open RapidWeaver
  2. Close any open documents.
  3. Download the Blocks disk image here.
  4. Double click on the Blocks plugin in the disk image window.
  5. Quit and restart RapidWeaver
You'll need to republish pages before the new content (like the new javascripts) gets to your server, but otherwise there should be no changes required.

How do I get it?
The most recent versions of Blocks are always available (with release dates and build numbers) on our Downloads page. Or you can just click right here: Blocks v3.1.1
